In this paper, we analyze the symbol error rate (SER) performance of maximum likelihood (ML) joint detection in downlink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multicarrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) systems by deriving a tight union bound on the symbol error rate (SER). The union bound for ML joint detection is utilized to demonstrate the performance of MIMO MC-CDMA systems quantitatively in multiuser and frequency selective Rayleigh fading environments. An analysis of the diversity order of the systems shows the effects of multiple users, spread subcarriers, and multiple antennas on the ML joint detection performance. Furthermore, the analysis shows that MIMO MC-CDMA systems without full loading can achieve more diversify than MIMO orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems.

Multicarrier code division multiple access(MC-CDMA) system that combines multicarrier modulation with CDMA offers robustness to frequency selective fading and can support higher rate data transmission with higher spectral efficiency. A new asynchronous MC-CDMA system to implement multiple data rate communications is proposed in this paper. In a W-CDMA downlink the orthogonal variable spreading factor(OVSF) code is used for variable spreading factor for various multimedia traffic. Proposed system utilizes the OVSF code that generated by generation property for spreading. The proposed MC-CDMA system use different lengths of OVSF code as a spreading code according to their data rate. The groupwise processing is accomplished by code grouping in OVSF code generation tree. For the analysis of average BER performance, numerical method and computer simulation were used. We also compare the system performance with that of a single rate MC-CDMA system used orthogonal code as a spreading code.

As a new type of a linear decorrelating receiver, the Pseudo-Decorrelator was presented for asynchronous code division multiple access systems by the author. In this paper, the concept of the Pseudo-Decorrelator is extended to derive a receiver for WCDMA uplink systems over an additive white Gaussian noise channel. Starting with the analysis of the multiple access components of the decision statistics, a non-square cross-correlation matrix for each bit is obtained. This cross-correlation matrix is then inverted, and the inverted matrix is applied to the decision statistics obtained from a conventional receiver. In this receiver, the detection process can be started after the first three consecutive bits are received. Simulation results are presented for K-user systems over an additive white Gaussian noise channel under the circumstances in which synchronization errors, including time delay errors and carrier phase errors exist. It is shown that the proposed receiver performs better than a conventional receiver and parallel interference canceller.

The algorithm of multiple channel signal processing requires the flexibility of variable frequency band, efficient allocation of transmission power, and flexible frequency band reallocation to satisfy various service types which requires different transmission rates and frequency band. This paper proposes an improved multiple channel signal processing for converting the frequency band of multiple carrier signals efficiently using a window function and DFT in the time domain. In contrast to the previous algorithm of multiple-channel signal processing performing band-pass signal processing in the frequency domain, the proposed algorithm is a method of block signal processing using a window function in the time domain. In addition, the complexity of proposed algorithm of the window function is lower than that of the previous algorithm performing signal processing in the frequency domain, and it performs the frequency band transform efficiently. The computer simulation result shows that the perfect reconstruction of output signal and the flexible frequency band reallocation is performed efficiently by the proposed algorithm.

In the conventional rake receiver structure for the IS-95 CDMA system, each finger has its own time-deskew buffer or FIFO that aligns the multipath signals to the same timing reference in order to combine symbols. This architecture is not a burden to the rake receiver design mainly because of the small number and size of the buffers. However, the number and size of the buffers are significantly increased in the cdma2000 system which adopts multiple carriers and the small spreading gain for a higher rate in data services. In order to decrease the number of buffers, we propose a new model of the time-deskew buffers, which combines the symbols as well as realigns them at the same time. Our architecture reduces the hardware complexity of the buffers by about more than 60% and 70% compared with the conventional one when we consider each rake receiver has three and four independent fingers, respectively. Moreover, the proposed algorithm is very useful not only to the cdma2000 rake receiver but also to the receiver with many fingers in order to increase the BER performance.

We propose optimal interference rejection weight for multistage parallel nulling (MPN) partial parallel interference cancellation (PPIC) receiver previously proposed to enhance the performance of V-BLAST for downlink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multicarrier (MC)-code division multiple access (CDMA) systems. MPN-PPIC method proposed in [1] was based on the parallel interference cancellation (PIC) with fixed interference rejection weight obtained experimentally. However, the fixed weight can not be adapted to various systems efficiently, thus we proposed method for the optimal interference rejection weight based on the received signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR), and the performance of the proposed method was evaluated through computer simulation comparing with the previous method. We obtained performance gains of 2.5 dB ~ 5 dB for BER of 10$^{-3}$ .

It is necessary that Fail-Safe Seaway technology providing a continuous navigation solution though fault of navigation system is occurred in sea. This paper focus on signal processing of GPS receiver, one of receivers using the software radio technology to implement a integrated radio navigation system including satellite-based and ground-based navigation systems. It is difficult to implement the software GPS receivers using a commercial processor because of the heavy computational burden for processing the GPS signals in real time. This paper proposes an efficient multi-bit GPS signal processing scheme to reduce the computational burden for processing the GPS signals in the software GPS receiver. The proposed scheme uses a compression concept of the multi-bit replica signals and patterned look-up table method to generate the correlation value between the GPS signals and the replica signals.

시분할 다중화 방식을 이용한 정전 구동형 XY 스테이지의 새로운 위치 검출 방법을 제안한다. 각축의 고정자에 90도의 위상차를 가지는 여기(excitation) 신호를 주입하여 스테이지와 연결된 1개의 charge amplifier와 S/H를 이용하여 x축과 y축 방향의 위치를 검출한다. charge amplifier의 파라미터는 DC 이득이 크고 또한 신호간 간섭이 발생하지 않도록 설정한다. 제안된 방법은 XY 스테이지의 디지털 서보 제어기의 구성요소인 S/H를 사용하기 때문에 기존의 방식과는 달리 위치 신호의 검출이 안정적이고 반송 신호에 의한 고조파 왜곡과 복조 과정에서 발생되는 지연을 현저히 줄일 수 있으며 간단하게 구현할 수 있다.

This paper presents a performance analysis of dynamic channel allocation (DCA) based on the greedy approach (GA) for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems over Rayleigh fading channels. The GA-based DCA achieves its performance improvement using multi-user diversity. We analyze the statistics of the number of allocable users (NAU), which represents the multi-user diversity order at each allocation process. The derived statistics are then used to analyze the performance of GA-based DCA. The analysis results show that the number of subcarriers allocated to each user must be equal to achieve the maximum system performance (i.e., based on outage probability and data throughput).
